Description
Gilderdale Viaduct is a disused railway viaduct built in 1852, likely designed by Sir George Barclay-Bruce. It is constructed from squared stone with tooled and margined ashlar dressings. The structure features a central elliptical arch flanked by lower semicircular arches. The arch rings are chamfered and include keystones and impost blocks, while the intrados of the arches displays channeled rustication. There are flanking pilasters with rusticated quoins, and a projecting half-round band at the base of the parapet, which ends in low rectangular piers topped with pyramidal caps. This viaduct was part of the Alston branch of the Newcastle-Carlisle railway.
